Advice please

I had sex about an hour ago, went to toilet for a wee and wiped some blood. Nothing I would usually even bother about but I’ve read all the things on here and online now I’m worried. What should I do? 😒

Wouldn’t worry aslong as It stops I had this the other month I get it every time now the midwife says I have sensitive cervix I also get it if I go to the toilet but iv seen my little bean all well on the scan try not to read the internet always seems bad news x

This happened to me on Friday night, I had bright red blood that went on the bed, no pain or cramps, I put a pad on and went to bed. By the morning I only had some brown and get a little bit when I wipe now... I spoke to a midwife at maternity triage and she said it’s common after sex and that if it’s stopped and there’s no pain I should try not to worry. She said if I was worried to go to A&E, I didn’t bother with a&e, I work there and there’s nothing they could do, as epau don’t open again till Tuesday... yesterday I felt like my pregnant symptoms had gone, but today I’ve had morning sickness and my boobs are sore again. Keeping everything crossed... try not to worry xxx

I've also had this the last three times I've had sex. I literally wipe right afterwards and it's there but then doesnt carry on and stops straight away so I'm not too worried after reading online it's quite common. As long as it doesn't carry on and you have no pain, it should be nothing to worry about xx
